Ever since Bai Mei had been imprisoned here, this middle-aged man surnamed Niu had spoken to her several times. According to his introductions, he was the Director of the Riverside District's Merchants Bureau, and because a foreign company fell for the Crystal Palace, he came to talk to Bai Mei. He wanted to exchange Bai Mei's contribution to the Crystal Palace for her freedom and freedom, so he wouldn't be punished by the law.
Bai Mei was very clear that she did not know the root cause behind her fall into such a predicament, but it was definitely related to the Niu family head of the Merchant Shop and the so-called foreign investment. They were either behind the scenes, or were the main culprits.
There were no ordinary people who could open a star hotel in the Jiangnan City, especially a hotel with three stars or higher. Without a deep background or official status, it was impossible to open one without being able to do so.
Bai Mei was the one with the least background among all the 3-star hotels. She had inherited the old pervert's business, and although the old pervert had a backer, Bai Mei had no use for him. Furthermore, she had only inherited the Crystal Palace for a few years and had yet to establish her own network.
Otherwise, how could Bai Mei not know about the bureau chief of the Merchant Shop? Of course, it was normal for Bai Mei to not know about a regional director of the Merchant Shop.
As such, some people with ill intentions would set their sights on Bai Mei. Bai Mei was just like a child walking down the street with gold in her arms. She had plenty of wealth but didn't have the ability to protect it accordingly; it would be weird if she wasn't coveted by others.
The director of the Merchants' Bureau with the surname Niu was called Niu. If it was a normal situation, he would not easily provoke Bai Mei, this four-star hotel's boss, since he could not even touch Bai Mei.
However, things were different now. There were people supporting Niu Xun from behind. Some people had their eyes on Bai Mei's Crystal Palace, and they also had their eyes on Bai Mei. Not only did they have to get her huge assets, they also had to get Bai Mei into their beds.
Niu Hou was a lackey who had been pushed to the front desk, but he was willing to be a lackey. Even if he didn't get much money, he could still be promoted by one or two ranks.
As for Bai Meiyuan not being wronged and not doing anything that would harm her merits, he could not continue this matter. He was a resolute atheist and did not believe that there was any retribution between the two worlds.
Niu Xun believed that as long as he lived a good life, he would not believe that there would be a next life. Naturally, he would not care about the afterlife!
These days, he had almost succeeded. Bai Mei's reaction wasn't as intense as he thought. When he mentioned that there was a foreign-owned company willing to buy her Crystal Palace, Bai Mei even asked about the price, indicating that she was interested.
However, today, Bai Mei's attitude changed and she actually used sharp words to mock him. Niu Xun really wanted to slap Bai Mei twice, but he didn't dare to do so because someone up there had taken a fancy to Bai Mei. He was angry at Bai Mei now, but the trouble in the future would definitely not be small.
Therefore, Niu Xun had no choice but to spout vicious words and threaten Bai Mei so that she would go bankrupt. He even said that if she was not allowed to sell herself for a living, his surname would not be Niu.
He pointed at Bai Mei with a trembling finger, "Fine, Bai Mei, you're very good. Now you can't even promise to sell the Crystal Palace. If I don't let you go bankrupt and become a prostitute who can only live by selling herself, then my surname is not Niu!"
"Yawning? I shall see who dares to publicly threaten others with such arrogance!"
With the thump thump of the footsteps, the trembling voices of the two police officers guarding the door could be heard. "Chen …" Good morning, Chief Chen! "
"Humph, you guys did well. You actually let an outsider come here and directly threaten the people involved. You guys really deserve this set of clothes!"
"I... "No, no. It's Director Wang …"
The two guards seemed to want to explain something, but they were coldly interrupted, "I don't want to hear any explanations. I will immediately report to the city police station and explain the situation to your faces. Also, you are not allowed to contact anyone. Zhao, take them with you, go right now. "
"Yes sir!" "Yes!" Someone replied. Then, footsteps sounded in the distance. It should be two guards that were taken away by Zhao.
At this moment, Bai Mei had also seen the situation outside through the half-closed door.
Outside the door was a middle-aged policeman with slightly bald hair and a dark complexion. Bai Mei recognized him at a glance. Chen Jizheng, the Deputy Chief of the Jiangnan City Public Security Bureau.
"Hello Chief Chen, I'm Niu Xun, the bureau chief of the Riverside District's Merchants Bureau. It was Director General Wang of the Riverside Division who asked me to persuade the suspect. It has nothing to do with the two policemen."
Seeing that the person in question was Chen Jizheng, Niu Juecheng immediately felt that things were going to get worse. He was on the same side as Director General Wang of the Riverside Sub-Bureau, so he was not very familiar with the Deputy Chief of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, who was nicknamed "Chen Hei".
Chen Jizheng was nicknamed "Chen Hei". Not only did he have a dark face, he was also very tough. As long as a criminal fell into his hands, no one would be able to get along with him.
"I was wondering who it was. So it's Bureau Chief Niu. Since Director General Wang from the sub-bureau allowed you to participate in the case, then please show me the formalities."
"Procedures?" Niu Zuojiao was confused, he didn't know what Chen Suo meant.
Chen Jizheng laughed. "Yes, I heard your tone just now. You're interrogating the suspect, right?" Since you have the qualifications to interrogate a suspect, then please indicate that you have temporarily joined the investigation team. According to the organization's regulations, there must be legal procedures for people other than the police to participate in the investigation team.
"Huh?" Niu Xun was confused, "I... When I came here, Director General Wang didn't give me any formalities, and I don't even know what formalities were needed! "
"Oh, so Director Niu's actions just now were against the law?" Chen Jizheng's face darkened and he glared at Lee, "Lee, find a room and let Chief Niu rest for a while. Let him explain the details of the violation of the law."0
"Yes sir!" A young policeman agreed and gestured towards Niu Xun, "Director Niu, please follow me."
"Chief Chen, I'm the bureau chief of the Merchant Shop. Plus, I'm here because of Director General Wang of your sub-bureau. You can't do it like this, have you asked Director General Wang?"
Although Niu Xun was somewhat afraid of Chen Hei, he wasn't particularly afraid of him. After all, the two of them were not in the same unit, and he was still the director of the Merchants' Bureau. Although he was only the manager of a district, he was not someone that Chen Jizheng could touch easily.
"Hehe, I don't need to ask Director General Wang of the sub-bureau about my work, but you have to solve your problem now. Lee, what are you still standing there for? Do you want me to say it a second time?"
